Sherman and the Solid South.
Savannah News.

Senator Sherman will have a courteous
reception at Nashville, and will be lis
tened to attentively- If he hopes to break
to meet with disappointment. The South
is satisfied with Democratic principles
and the Democratic party. Since the
Democratic party came into power the
Southern States have entered upon a ca
reer of prosperity that is as marvellous as
it is gratifying. The State, county and
municipal governments are in the hands
of intelligent and honest men. There Is
no effort to T, rec ignorance or dishonesty
into places Of authority by means OF
Federal bayonets, and the people are
contented. Let him discuss Republican
doctrines as much as he likes and
wherever he pleases. but he need not ex-
pect to strengthen his party in the South
as long as its leaders try to make it
strong in the North by misrepresenting
and slandering the Southern people.

said;
My ancestors came to this country in

including the right of free speech. APP
plause. ! am an American citizen, but
tonight | am ashamed of the privilege Of
which have been proud. | am ashamed
that am citizen of country where
such an outrage can be perpetrated.
Itheers An outrage which would dis
grace the worst age of Russian tyranny.
We met here peaceahly, there has been
no more peaCeabe assembly in the city
of New York than this earnest meeting
of workingmen. You came rs working
men to exercise IA right as citizens to
preach the doctrines Of the progressive
Labor Party, Applause Are we ser

your members! Are you going to stand

to you to take arms aud annihiate those
wretches, but | do say to you to take
ballots in your hands in November for
the progressive Labor Parry and bury
these d--d scoundrels. Cheers and
applause These servants Of millionaire
masters the heartleSs masters who hire
these tyrant5-must be buried out of
out of sight. Take ballots in your hands
and bury them so deep that they will
never be heard Of again. | look upon
upon this as new birth of American
freedom. Right and justice and freedom
have always been born Of bloodshed, and
ont OF this | look for a movement that
will sweep these men out of existence.
BE true to yourselves, be cautious, be
vigilant, be active, but swear vengeance
against this wretched depotism."
Mr.. Charles Sotheran made Wig
orous protest against the outrage and
appealed to the courage and good
sense Of all citizens to protect their
rights.
Chairman O'Neil then called upon
Mr.. Shevitch to close the meeting,
which in a forcible speech he did,
and closed with the words, "Good-
night And the people shouted
back, Goodnight !" and quietly
dispersed.

LABOR vs.. LAND TAX.

Henry George will have an oppor-
tunity to gain many adhorcnts for
his land tax party by successfully
showing how his little idea will help
the working people. The question::
In what way will single land tax
entirely remove competition among la
borers, give permanent employment to
those rendered supertluous by machine
ry and other improved methods Of pro
duction, and secure to every one the full
value of his labor?'
will be answered in favor of the
land tax by Henry George, while
Editor Sheyitch will point out that
it can't be done that way.
